Bette Midler - Cool Yule CD

Cool Yule buy CD music CompositionsAlbum Liner NotesDecember 10, 2008 This album features professional singers Shellie Jacobs, Dan Fryer, and Susan Restani singing there hearts out on the featured track "When I Think Back". This is a solid jazz/rock song with a lot of influence from the group "Chicago". This album features instrumentals of three vocal songs from the first album "A Rock 'n' Roll Love Story". The fourth instrumental is the progressive rock song "6 Over 4" which is a rare hard rock song done in 6/4 time. Rounding out the vocal tracks are "Pamela" featuring Warren and his brother Mybrid having a lot of fun singing a straight rock song dedicated "tongue in cheek" to Pamela Anderson (if you want to really feel good listen to Mybrid rap out his heart to the ladies mid song). "I'm Not Going To Be Alone" is a highly progressive jazz/rock song that defies typical song arrangements. The ending of the song really turns it up to full throttle and leaves one ready to take on the world! "When I Think Back" is played on many Internet radio stations KIAC. This album has a great instrumental version of the song "A Day In The Country" from the first album "A Rock 'n' Roll Love Story". The retitled instrumental "It's Hard To Say" is one of the hottest instrumentals ever to appear on GarageBand. Here are a few of the many GarageBand reviews of the instrumental "It's Hard To Say": Must Hear InstrumentalVery well done instrumental. Wonderful tempo changes throughout. Great work on the finger picking. I love the sax! One of the best instrumentals I have heard on here. Extra Credit: Mood. cooliothis song kicks ass. definitely a song you HAVE to listen to, guitars are awesome and really different. (bass player and drums and saxophone work well with everything as well) this band is fantasticExtra Credit: Originality Great Acoustic Guitar OpeningThe song is a successful one for a few reasons: 1) Great use of both electric and acoustic lead guitars. Both are cleanly played and shadow each other very well. 2)The saxophone is a great substitute for a vocal. Well played. Overall, a great song. Extra Credit: Guitars.

Funky music to sway toI was tapping my foot from the beginning, this song is catchy and clean. The guitar melody is nice, and I like the switch from chords to finger picking, it makes it seem like there is a musical conversation occuring. Its a good beat to sway and dance to, and the guitar really takes the place of vocals in a great sense. Extra Credit: Guitars. good feelgood production. sounds like the eagles. it makes me happy. haha. good thing. the lead guitar tone is decent not too over done. the spanish guitar is sexy and i like the dual action between the two. good stuff. it has a good feel to it. nice!!!Extra Credit: Guitars, Mood. Killer Song....Deep trance like melody, intersecting with outstanding lead guitar work. The distorted guitars really sound good. nice interplaynice contrasts on your sounds here. makes it a pleasure to review. i am impressed with the very straight forward melodys. very excellant changes up and the vocals are a nice touch up.that classical guitarist has got a great technique,this is very easy on the listener but offers up great playing to please my guitar picking cravings.great job on this one,best wishes probityExtra Credit: Female Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Keyboards, Programming, Production, ...
